Nico Hischier Was Not At-Fault For The New Jersey Devils' Struggles...His Leadership & Impact Was Important

The Devils are coming off their best game of the season against the NY Islanders with a 2-0 shutout victory. Obviously, the Philadelphia Flyers have had their defensive struggles, similar to the Devils. But, how do these two teams stack up against one another? Danielle, Rachel (Both of Locked On Flyers), and I have a crossover episode to give our respective analysis.Follow Danielle on Twitter: @danielle_niccFollow Rachel on Twitter: @rmiriamSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.

NHL rumors are rumbling about Pierre-Luc Dubois wanting out of Columbus and there were a couple sources saying that is was plausible that the Devils were amongst many teams in the hunt. In this episode, I give my opinion on a doable trade and also maybe a Blue Jackets reunion between Murray and Dubois. Also, I did a follow up on the disappointing game from two nights ago. Keep an ear out on possible contract talks.Disclaimer: This episode was recorded yesterday afternoon and is just a big what if hypothetical scenario!Follow Dane Craig AKA Hockey Economist on Twitter: @HockeconomicsBuy his book: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08QMR9KN9Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.

So far this was the Devils' worst game of the young year. I won't blame this loss on Scott Wedgewood, because (ONCE AGAIN) the defense failed him. Also, Mackenzie Blackwood is out due to Covid-19 protocol, that’s a little bit concerning. This game was pretty ugly to say the least, but I will try my best to remain positive. It was also nice to see Andy Greene once again...but it was painful.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust. Betonline.ag!

The New Jersey were finally able to find Corey Crawford's replacement. They claimed G Aaron Dell off of waivers from the Toronto Maple Leafs. Dell has spent his time as a back up goalie for the San Jose Sharks for four years, and I feel as though this move has fallen under the radar a bit. Also, it's gameday for New Jersey as they take on the New York Islanders. I believe these two teams are pretty evenly matched, but I still think that the Devils can still win it.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust.

Well, for the first time in over a year, the New Jersey Devils are currently over .500. However, this game against the New York Rangers was an "ugly win" to say the least. While Mackenzie Blackwood and Jack Hughes shined, the team's specialty teams are still terrible. I always get nervous when they enter the penalty kill. I explain it more in this episode.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust. Betonline.ag!

The Devils have gotten off to a decent start to the season, we are currently 1-0-1. Taking the reigning President's Trophy winners from a season ago to two OTs, while securing at least one win, definitely says something about our team. Also, three of our main guys are still out. So, how do we stack up against the New York Rangers? Jon Chik (Locked On Rangers) and I cross it over to have a discussion. Also, I love Yegor Sharangovich!Follow Jon on Twitter: @JChik17Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetOnline AG: There is only 1 place that has you covered and 1 place we trust. Betonline.ag!
